Department of Music Presents String Duo and Guitar Showcase
On Wednesday, Nov. 14th, Frostburg State’s music department help a showcase at the Pealer Hall Performing Arts Center. There was a good amount of people that attended. The first three pieces called Menuet, Et la lumiere fut, and Winter were played by the string duo Maggie Malat on the cello and Elijah Jones on the double bass.
The first piece that was played for the guitar showcase was Choros No. 1 by Grant Stryckning. It was very groovy with settling tones throughout performance. It was very soothing but upbeat at the same time.
The next piece, Etude, played by Nate Richards shared very repetitive notes with different pitches which made the song very intriguing.
Although it was a short piece, Romance for Tree played by Marshall Borles, was very angelic.
Tarantella, played by Daniel Bedwell, was very upbeat that shared a lot of fast and moderate tempos.
Tico tico no Fubá played by Corey Snowden is a Brazillian choro that reached popularity in the 1940’s followed by Val’s played by Paul Zimmerman.
The Miller’s Dance was played by all the guitarists and conducted by Patrick Sise. Sise is a graduate of the Peabody Institute of the Johns Hopkins University where he earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in guitar performance.

I would also like to add if you do not now have an insurance policy or maybe you do not remain in any group insurance, chances are you’ll well benefit from seeking the assistance of a health insurance professional. Self-employed or people with medical conditions typically seek the help of one health insurance brokerage service. Thanks for your text.
